Traumatic Brain Injury and Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy

Traumatic Brain Injury and Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy - The Endocannabinoid System in Management and Recovery

Over the past several years, the increasing prevalence of concussion, traumatic brain injury (TBI) and chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) in athletes has led to an intense debate about the future of contact sports. Former athletes are beginning to speak out about the devastating effects that concussions and traumatic brain injuries have had on their lives, and medical research has confirmed the myriad health consequences that occur from these types of injuries.

And, while much of this debate has revolved around concussion and traumatic brain injury in professional football, the negative effects of head injury can be found in participants of almost any contact sport, as well as in extreme sports athletes and military combat veterans.

Traumatic Brain Injury and Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy - The Endocannabinoid System in Management and Recovery presents a comprehensive overview of this incredibly important topic. By focusing on athletes, this course will present a detailed analysis of traumatic brain injury and CTE.

In addition, this course will analyze the critical role of the human endocannabinoid system in traumatic brain injury and CTE, providing an overview of the therapeutic benefits of phytocannabinoid and hyperbaric oxygen therapy in the adjunctive medical management of these conditions.
